Neighborly Disputes End in Failed Firebombing

A Phoenix man has two problems: his neighbor, and throwing like a girl.

According to court records obtained by New Times, 51-year-old Bruce Mueller had a dispute with his neighbor at an apartment complex at 1625 East Glendale Avenue in Phoenix. He responded by trying to set burn the neighbor's house down.

About 11 p.m. Friday, Mueller broke the glass door of the neighbor's house. He then poured gasoline and motor oil on the porch that, if on fire, would block the door for anyone looking to flee the building if it were on fire.

Then Mueller filled a glass bottle with gasoline, lit it on fire, and threw it at the victim's house.
